It was called the Visa Transparency Anti-Trafficking Act.

The State Department Trafficking in Persons report from June 2017 showed that labor trafficking prosecutions dropped to just 5 percent and labor trafficking convictions dropped to 3 percent of overall human trafficking cases in the United…

I come to the floor today after a fourth field hearing in Connecticut. Every one of those field hearings has been packed. I spent time at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Hartford, as well as having visited others over the past year. I have…

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you all for being here today.

The outcome of that has been a more coordinated and comprehensive care model that we all support.

Am I satisfied with where we are today? I think it is still a work in progress.

I think we are all in agreement that we want the Choice Program to provide the best possible care.

over the last 10 days, I have conducted emergency field hearings, giving my constituents in Connecticut an opportunity to be heard, a chance for their voices and faces to be part of considering the Republican healthcare or really, more…

Any particular matter that has a direct or substantial effect on American Airlines, I'm recused under the statute for one year.

I would suggest respectfully that perhaps you may want to reconsider that response and amend your questionnaire.

Do you support American manufacturing?

I'm not asking about recall issues, I'm asking about liability for severe injuries and deaths caused by airbags.

But the questionnaire asks whether you have, quote, been the subject of a complaint to any professional association?

I am proud to be on the floor today, proud to stand with my colleagues, and I hope that at the end of this week, I will be proud of all of my colleagues when we vote to defeat this measure, or at least to delay it, because we owe the…

I am proud and honored to follow my colleague from Oregon who has been such a steadfast leader when it comes to our Nation's healthcare and insurance and particularly when it comes to women's healthcare. I have been really proud to stand…

I am deeply disappointed by the secrecy that has been employed by my colleagues in their reckless attempts to gut the Affordable Care Act. It is clear to me that, in the absence of hearings, of public debate, and of any bill text at all…

earlier this week, on Monday morning at 9 a.m., I held a last-minute emergency field hearing on healthcare. With our colleagues on the other side of the aisle refusing to hold any official hearing on the bill and refusing to even show us…

There is a very low-tech solution here, which is to eliminate the bag fees.

Now we have a new administration and now the rules unfortunately are still languishing.

I want to say that 2 years ago I asked your predecessor at his nomination hearing about the task that Senator Booker raised, the task of our rail and transit network, its vulnerability, and the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission.

One troubling area of threat around the world... is the use of everyday implements, vehicles, in causing the kinds of mass attacks.

But making matters worse, the new administration has pursued a regulatory freeze and a hiring freeze, which may have impacts on the ongoing effort to implement these programs.

The only reason it hasn't been adopted is that the airlines are making money from it, a lot of money.
